The Kerala High court on Wednesday stayed the criminal proceedings against actor Sunny Leone in a cheating case registered in 2019. She had moved the High Court seeking to quash and FIR filed against her by the crime branch wing of the state police.
An event management company had complained that Sunny Leone, her husband Daniel Weber and an employee of hers failed to attend Valentine’s Day function in Kochi in 2019, after accepting a payment of around Rs 29 lakh.
While the organisers had maintained that Sunny Leone had not turned up for the function, she has stated that she had come twice and the event was not held.
Leone had reportedly stated that the programme had been rescheduled several times by the organisers and it was not due to her inconvenience and a balance amount of Rs 12 lakh was still due to her.
